Paste the logfile into there and run the analyser. Looks like there are some things to get rid of, the main ones being:

C:\Program Files\W3i\InstallIQUpdater\InstallIQUpdater.exe
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {02478D38-C3F9-4EFB-9B51-7695ECA05670} - (no file)
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [InstallIQUpdater] "C:\Program Files\W3i\InstallIQUpdater\InstallIQUpdater.exe" /silent /autorun

The InstallIQUpdater may be possible to be removed via Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs. But I'd suggest doing an internet search on it - the results I found suggest it is malware.

Literally just done that and got rid of them....
